Chapter 669: Classic! An absolute classic!

"One Hundred Years of Solitude" sold more than 50,000 copies on the first day, which amazed many people. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

It also made many people sigh that Li Kuo really gained a firm foothold in the United States and did what many predecessors wanted to do but couldn't.

After all, that's 50,000 copies a day!

This is an unimaginable dream number for many other foreign writers who want to make progress in the United States, and for them anyway, it is quite good for a book to sell 50,000 in North America, not 50,000 a day.

However, it is clear that the most concerned about "One Hundred Years of Solitude" now is not the sales of this book, but the forced style of this book.

Because now Li Kuo doesn't need to prove himself in sales, he needs to prove himself in the forced style of the novel.

After all, it's about what happens to Columbia University and New York University.

In terms of sales, Li Kuo's previous novels are no longer a problem, after all, many master writers who have participated in this kind of report before, and even the sales of all his books are not as good as Li Kuo's "The Lord of the Rings", so in terms of sales, it is really not a problem for him to consider, and now what he has to consider is the forced style, which is the final evaluation of a book.

And now on the Amazon book network, the evaluation speed of Li Kuo used to come out quite fast, but I don't know what happened to this "One Hundred Years of Solitude", anyway, the evaluation speed is very slow, and there are only one or two five-star ratings, and there are not many reviews for the time being.

There is a little bit of a sparse comment, but it is only relatively thin, just a few words.

Anyway, the shoes are very simple, that is, things like "okay, good" or "very good", it can be seen that everyone's evaluation of this book is okay now, but it is not to the extent that it is high.

As a result, within Columbia University now, the guys who made the decision before are now also relieved.

To be honest, although Li Kuo is a Chinese writer, the miracles he has created before make people at Columbia University still have the urge to wipe a sweat when they think about it.

Because his previous "The Fall of the Giant" and "The Lord of the Rings" were excellent cases of turnarounds, they are now also worried about "One Hundred Years of Solitude".

But from the current point of view, everything is fine, it is not unacceptable, anyway, there is no miracle that they are most afraid of, it seems that they can get through this level.

The pressure on Columbia University was really not small.

For Li Kuo, the initial word-of-mouth and sales were within his expectations, but the sales were higher than he imagined.

In fact, Li Kuo's sales goal for "One Hundred Years of Solitude" is to sell about 150,000 copies in North America at the end, which is about the same, after all, this book is not used to sell at all, so in terms of sales, if there is, it must be good, but if not, there is no way.

However, judging by the current sales, this book is still okay.

By the second day, "One Hundred Years of Solitude" was finally revealed in the eyes of some people - the book sold 25,000 copies the next day, and the total number of copies sold in two days was 80,000 copies, which is still a good sales figure, anyway, it looks like 80,000 in two days, which is better than Li Kuo's two novels before.

But the problem is that from the first day to the second day, it was basically a cliff-like drop in sales.

Then, by the third day, the single-day sales of "One Hundred Years of Solitude" had dropped to 14,500 copies!

In three days, the sales volume was close to 100,000, but the decline in sales really made some people a little frightened, and Li Kuo's book fans, whether in China or the United States, were already a little worried.

Chinese book lovers, in particular, are now full of worries, feeling that the grandchildren of Colombia are going to have the last laugh......

"This sales have fallen off a cliff! Ha ha! This should be his normal level, and based on the current sales, the book should not sell more than 150,000 copies! ”

"Yes! Obviously, the decline in the sales of "One Hundred Years of Solitude" should be due to word-of-mouth......"

Several people at Columbia University are already proudly discussing.

"Let's look at word of mouth...... these people thought of this idea, they did what they wanted, opened the web page, and began to look for the reputation of "One Hundred Years of Solitude".

Someone else is saying, "I don't know if this book can have a score of 7 in the Amazon book......"

"7 points may be less, you have to know what the sales of "One Hundred Years of Solitude" are like now......" someone immediately received.

"It's ...... too"

In the midst of their conversations, the word-of-mouth interface of "One Hundred Years of Solitude" was soon placed in front of them.

After a few days of sales, the number of ratings for "One Hundred Years of Solitude" has reached more than 4,000, which is a complete increase compared to the beginning.

However, what surprised them was that these more than 4,000 people actually gave "One Hundred Years of Solitude" a super high score of 9.5 points!

This number made them all dumbfounded, and hurriedly continued to read it again in order to be sure.

However, no matter how many times you watch it, it is a number of 9.5.

"Damn, how is that possible? How is it possible to have such a high score? Someone couldn't help it anymore and scolded.

Everyone started to look down, and then they saw one comment after another.

One by one, one by one, the comments were shocked!

"Truth be told, the beginning of the book, with its obscure names and complicated side branches, made me almost give up One Hundred Years of Solitude, I mean, in that case, I almost gave up on a classic! That's right, it's a classic! It was very difficult at first, and the more I read, the more addictive I became. The astonishing narrative and the tidal version of the narrative tear through the cloak of truth like a beast...... I think it's the most classic novel I've ever read, I mean, not one of them! This is definitely a classic, the number one classic in the row! ”

"Who would have thought that the most classic novel I have ever seen was actually written by a Chinese? This "One Hundred Years of Solitude", as long as I get past that beginning, will open the door to a new world, and at first I was irritated by the flowery rhetoric, the absurd plot, and the lengthy surname...... But as the story unfolded, I realized I was wrong. Such a complex family, seven generations of glory and loneliness, passion and loneliness, perseverance and laziness, worldliness and detachment, madness and calmness. It's family, it's history, it's life...... It's even more lonely! I can't put into words how much I love this novel, which is born to be the Nobel Prize! ”

…… Similar praise made this group of people in Colombia dumbfounded.
